"You will arise and have compassion on Zion,
for it is time to show favor to her; the appointed time has come."
Psalm 102:13
The Appointed Time Has Come
We believe that, for the Assemblies of God (AG) and for all believers, the appointed time has come
to show favor to Zion. And through Jacob's Hope, an outreach ministry of the AG, we can do just that. We can bring hope to the children of Jacob: Jewish people around the world.
What Does "Hope" Look Like?
In many countries, the typical village may consist of dirt roads, huts, and outhouses.
The Jewish people, from the babies to the elderly, have no access to nutritious food or medical care.
Living on meager pensions of perhaps $50 - $100 per month, their lives are ones of constant deprivation, fear, and despair. While other peoples are being reached, the Jewish people have remained largely unserved. Jacob's Hope is working to change this.
The Hope We Minister Takes Many Forms:
Humanitarian Aid - Aid Distribution Centers, Soup kitchens and medical clinics; or just being there to listen, hold a hand, or pray.
Practical Helps - Repairing homes; building medical clinics, feeding centers, worship centers, and job training centers;
providing funds for the digging of wells for fresh, clean water.
Training and Resources - Providing bibles, books, equipment, and training to enable local Pastors
and Messianic Rabbis to minister more effectively to their communities.
Sharing the Gospel - We are a "living Gospel" to these desperate people,
bringing the light and love of Messiah Yeshua (Jesus) into their darkness and desolation.
In all these ways and more, we can help these precious Jewish people|
to know and experience the love of God, and to truly know that
there are others who care about them -
that they have not been forgotten.
Our Vision...
...is to bring hope to Jacob's children everywhere in the world where there is a Jewish population in need. From the former Soviet Union, to Eastern Europe, to Ethiopia, to Israel itself, Jacob's Hope wants to bring humanitarian aid, food, medical care, training, and teaching; to come alongside the local congregations and provide material support so they can better reach their communities; to bring the gospel of the Jewish Messiah to the Jewish people.
Fruits of Our Labor - Some Examples:
Belarus - A congregation of 40 grows to more than 200 with the help of equipment and training provided by Jacob's Hope.
Germany - Many Jewish people come to faith in Yeshua at our 3-day seminar, and a new Messianic Congregation is birthed.
Ukraine - A Messianic pastor receives desperately needed dental care; hundreds of Jewish people are being fed.
Ethiopia - Jewish people are given the opportunity to learn trades in our Job Training Centers.
Chicken farms provide employment for several heads of households and also raise funds for future projects.
Israel - Plans are underway for opening thirty Humanitarian Aid centers across the country.
What Can You Do?
You can bless Jewish people around the world through Jacob's Hope in three key ways:
PRAY - Your prayers pave the way for our ministry to go forward.
GIVE - Your donation will literally change the lives of impoverished Jewish people.
GO - You can be a part of one of our Missions Teams - Medical Teams, Construction Teams, or Service Teams - helping to bring much needed comfort to the Jewish people, and showing them the love of God in tangible ways.
An Exciting Opportunity
Yes, revival is happening among the Jewish people of the world! The veil is being lifted from their eyes, and they are coming to faith in their Messiah,Yeshua, in large numbers - unlike anything we've seen before. Through Jacob's Hope, the AG is blazing trails in Jewish outreach, and you can help.
The Time is Now!
The Friedmans are the first AG World Missions appointees to the worldwide Jewish community.
Now - in our days - the Lord has raised up an AG ministry dedicated to bringing hope to Jacob's children. AG churches and individuals - and all followers of Jesus - can now focus their giving, focus their efforts, and send resources and teams to be a part of fulfilling the Word of God in Psalm 102, to...
"...arise and have compassion on Zion".
Through Jacob's Hope, you now have the exciting opportunity
to be a part of what God is doing
among His chosen people throughout the world in these last days.
You can help bring hope to Jacob's children!
